Why are you so vehement, Apos? Jeeze, calm down. Theory is:
1. A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested or is widely accepted and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena.
2. The...
There's a myth that you cannot see more than 30 fps, which is blatantly false. Fighter-jet pilots were tested for sight, and they were shown a 1 second long video made up of 200 frames. A single frame had the picture of a jet. After viewing it once, the pilots were generally able to tell...
Uhhh.... identical tests between 3DMark03 and 3DMark01SE? Is that possible? In-game tests have shown that Nvidia is strong in some cases, and ATI is strong is others. If you want to be informed, Nvidia is consistently dishonest about its products (paper launches, cheats, etc.) whereas ATI may...
CS 1.6
PROS
-built in bots
-more weapons
-different models
-newer maps
-Steam
CONS
-built in bots

I really think they should just drop everything after CS 1.6 and proceed working on CS 2 on HL2...
nVidia tried to shut Visiontek down with the help of BFG, which is comprised of former visiontek employees. Visiontek switched to ATI, and I followed them. I won't switch to nVidia unless they become the "performance underdogs" that we see so much of today (AMD, ATI, VIA)
Wha?! I thought this thread was gone along with the Clashing Opinions forum. Oh well.
I agree that definitions of words are different for everyone, seeing as definitions are themselves made of words that have definitions. Words will bring up different memories, experiences, and thus...
Sounds interesting. I was wondering how the different parts would affect the car, and if they were put into effect through the physics system, i.e. replacing an engine would make the gears turn faster which would make the wheels spin faster vs. replacing the engine makes the car go fast. I'm...
There are a certain few people who I hold in a different light, one of awe and reverence. And then there are those people who I hold in a different sort of light.
So, who are your favorite *different* people?
Mine are:
Jackie Chan - never stops hurting himself, thinks it's fun, makes a...
Hehehehe.
Mmmmrf.
Hahaha!-
sorry. I just got the image of young nurses carting old men in wheel chairs over to a shooting range and arming them with rifles. "Now that you've learned how to feed yourself again, we're going to teach you how to fire a Kalashnikov AK-47."
Yeah, that's true, though if I was being shot I would want to throw myself backwards to die with dignity. If you're going to watch the strange death sequence, it's at 13:05 and 13:11 (minutes:seconds). The problem with ragdoll physics is that the people don't have centers of gravity. They...
I don't fit here...
I don't fit anywhere...
So I'll just keep moving
Until I end up nowhere
I cannot label myself. It is an impossibility. Once I see myself in a certain light, I see myself in another. My character is dynamic. Until someone else labels me. Then I try to escape the...
Ragdoll Physics
Hey Tom...m...mo...
welcome to the forums! I just finished watching Fallguy, and I must admit I feel sorry for the virtual stuntmen. "No Rest/No Praise/No Pay". Funny you bring up ragdoll physics, because I was just thinking that the system has problems. I was watching the...
Wow, this is fun. Ok, I have two more.
A Spider - (from my childhood)
My eyes widened slightly in response to the appearance of my house. My family was making its hurried way across the street to our normally tranquil abode, but the sky was overcast, the colors a monotone grey. There...
